Synopsis

Gina Davies is a 26-year-old dancer in Sydney. She's a flawed woman - racist and obsessed with money - who finds her life suddenly destroyed by the things she has until that moment believed in most firmly. When she has a one-night stand with a man suspected of plotting to plant bombs, Gina finds that she, too, is a wanted person who must endure trial by an increasingly hysterical media, as every truth of her life is turned into a lie...

Media Reviews
'A masterpiece.' The Times 'The writing is miraculous: multi-layered, poetic and unlike anyone else's.' George Melly, Books of the Year, Sunday Telegraph 'Ferocious in its anger, grotesque, funny, violent, startlingly beautiful and, above all, heartbreakingly sad... I urge you to read it.' Observer 'A vivid, voluptuous, exhilarating writer.' Sunday Telegraph 'Hugely original... passages burn with the intense pleasure of story-making, of the abandon that comes from a seething of ideas and their joyful mutation into words.' Guardian
